"Speed Training For Soccer to Run Faster and Kick Farther"
Your kicking power and running speed will be determined by how fast your muscles contract, it's as simple as that.
Look at all the great soccer players. They are fast and quick on their feet, and their muscle speed is what delivers their powerful kicks.
With superior running speed and kicking power you can expect the following:
- Run faster to beat your opponent to the ball.
- Out run your opponent to get open.
- Out run your opponent to stop their scoring opportunity.
- Cover more of the field to get to more balls.

In Soccer, being able to run faster and kick farther gives the performance edge that often makes the difference between winning and losing.
Strength and skill development is always important, but in soccer speed plays a dominant role.
The most common soccer drills and exercises will help develop your skills, and give you more endurance, but they are not going to give you greater muscle speed.
For faster running speed, quicker lateral movement and to kick farther and harder you will need to have fast muscles, and you can not develop your muscles for speed with the usual soccer workouts and drills, including running laps.
What we have found is that muscle speed is best developed using a program of isometric exercises with resistance bands.
Now we know that isometrics has been around for many years, and dramatic results have been achieved using this technique, but because of the many new training methods that have been introduced over the past several years, isometrics has been mostly ignored.
Resistance bands have become more popular recently; however they are typically used as a replacement for weights and cables - but resistance bands as a replacement for weights, that is using repetitions, doesn't work for speed.
Resistance bands used properly with an isometric training strategy far out performs weights and other training programs when it comes to developing speed.
Isometrics, the way we teach it using the resistance band, is the ideal method to develop blazing speed and quickness in soccer and in any other sport.
Incredible results in athletic performance have been realized when muscles are properly conditioned for speed.
The many stories of dramatic increases in speed we receive from athletes and recreational players alike supports our research about how muscles are designed to produce both speed and strength and why muscles can not be trained for speed the same way they are trained for strength, coordination, and endurance.
This exercise training program, utilizing the dynamic properties of resistance bands, will train your muscles for speed and quickness in just a few minutes a day, simply, safely and effectively at your convenience, practically any where and any time without having to use weights or any special equipment.
Because the resistance level applied by the bands is determined by the strength of the individual, the exercises can be successfully used by practically anyone, of any age, (beginner, youth, high school, college or professional) and any fitness level and any skill level.
This revolutionary speed training program, allows anyone, of any age, background or level of experience, to dramatically increase their running speed, lateral quickness and kicking power.
